“I would like to see a lady in office, and to me, it seems like Hillary Clinton is for unions, and that’s very important to me.”
“It’s her or Donald Trump. There is no way I would vote for Donald Trump. I cannot imagine the future of my African-American children, my grandchildren or any family and friends under his leadership.
“Hillary is the best candidate. She will be more inclusive. She is more apt to support our efforts and, unlike Trump, not bust up the unions.
“She has a great jobs plan. That’s very important. It would be awesome if she could create more jobs.”
